  1. A whole bunch of parts of the brain are interconnected; so it is not just one part that works, to provide us with consciousness. My guess is that the cortex, frontal/prefrontal cortexes, sensory cortexes, etc plays a direct part. Maybe even raphe neurons. It seems like the same things are at play here: serotonin, dopamine, and glutamate.
  2. I've put my car keys in the fridge before. Or holding a cup of water and smoking a cigarette, and trying to take a sip out of my cigarette. I'm sure drinking is the worst of the bunch aside from maybe Sinemet. The main concern with APs would be tardive dyskinesia, permanent EPS. It's kind of like along the same lines as dyslexia. Dyslexia can be something that you have as a young person. One thing that you have to remember is that we are only 5 minute of no oxygen away from being brain dead. Alcohol also is notorious for causing brain damage, when not used in moderation. You have to work on keeping your nervous system sharp. Do brain and memory exercises if you can, daily.

  4. That's what i was gonna say Lamictal. Lamictal and an SSRI. But since you are allergic to Lamictal. So I would be looking at Topamax and an SSRI (Celexa). For now, this seems good, later, ADD meds could be considered.

  6. If you take exactly what GMO has and add it to exactly what Myrsbuilt has, that is what i have.
  7. I thought is was more like animal husbandry. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mad_cow
  8. Yes, Visual. Tylenol is a good way to ruin your liver [and kill yourself], when taken in large doses. It may only take ~20 pills to do you in.
  9. It's amazing that people still exist; when i find myself at the lowest point i just expect no one to be there, because that's how it's been for most of my life. ..... You take a med that makes you closer to your emotional self, you see how much you are missing, you don't want to go back to that cold, cold world.
  10. Hit the masculine over sensitive link. Read that. I'm getting disgusted just reading this. Sure it is natural. But would also assume killing is natural too. The idea that women are hardwired to procreate with borderline neanderthals makes me fear the future of our race. Our only hope is that a couple of intelligent guys slips one past the goalie a week of so before ovulation and gets lucky. I'm not a misogynist, but i think that women historically have power and have manipulated things either for selfish reasons such as money, pleasure, amusement, etc, or politically. Of course, men have been worse in many ways. They compete, lay waste, rape, pillage, poison, kill, wars.... posturing, jockeying for power, pissing here, pissing there, stealing money legally and illegally, etc. etc etc. This makes me more sick. It would be easy for me to attack just women or just men. But the problem is people. The issue is this: Are we able to redefine human nature?
  11. This is a look at how a woman's cycle influences her libido: BTW I have fluctuating asymmetry, lucky me Hot or Not: The Effect of Hormones on Attraction By: Vicki Santillano It’s said that women are prone to change their minds at the drop of a hat, which may have some truth to it, at least among many of the ladies in my life (myself included). But if men had the same surges of hormones month after month that women do, they’d be a little indecisive, too. Our monthly cycles introduce varying degrees of hormones into our systems that have an effect on mood, pain (hello, cramps and swollen body parts), and even attraction. We may have types we’re drawn toward regularly—tall, dark, and handsome, or intensely pensive artists, for example—but all that changes with the flip of an estrogen switch. Depending on our cycle stage, we might go for masculine over sensitive or “Mr. Take Charge” over “Mr. Nice Guy.” Near Ovulation, Estrogen Likes Testosterone During a woman’s monthly cycle, various hormones are released at certain times to prompt ovulation. These include luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (a steroid/sex hormone that’s part of the estrogen group), and progesterone (another steroid hormone). Throughout the years, studies have been somewhat contradictory as to what effects these hormones have on attraction, but as of late, consensus seems to be that they do affect how women see men, especially near ovulation. A 2004 study published in the Journal of Sexual Research showed that women have stronger sexual desire and more sexual fantasies near an oncoming LH release, which happens around mid-cycle and triggers ovulation. Researchers believed that the large amount of estrogen in the female system that stimulates the LH surge also increased sexual thoughts. A study performed at University of California, Santa Barbara concluded similarly, linking estradiol with a preference for men with higher testosterone levels. It was actually the first of its kind to directly show that connection between sex hormones. Researchers asked seventy-five women to rate pictures of men by attractiveness. Both the women and photographed men gave samples of their saliva to test their hormone levels. The women with higher estradiol levels liked the faces of men with higher testosterone levels the best. Macho Men vs. Sensitive Souls Masculine personality traits also become more desirable for women around their ovulation times. A 2004 study conducted at the University of New Mexico and published in Psychological Science found that ovulating women are attracted to men who display “social presence and direct competitiveness.” When female volunteers were shown videos of men competing for lunch dates, those in the highly fertile part of their cycles reported being more interested in the men who were aggressive and confident. However, that was only in short-term situations; when asked about attractiveness in terms of longer partnerships, they rated less positively. Some scientists believe this is related to our natural instincts as a procreative species—when we’re most fertile, we look for members of the opposite sex who can provide the best genes (i.e., the strongest, the most symmetrical faces, etc.). But otherwise, supportive figures who nurture and help out become hotter commodities. British and Japanese researchers found that to be true in 1999; their findings, which were published in Nature, showed that right before, during, and after a woman has her period—which is also when she’s least likely to conceive—she’s more attracted to feminine faces than masculine ones. During ovulation, women tend to desire macho, robust men, but after that ship sails, women want men they’re compatible with personality-wise. So what does all this mean if you’re already with someone? Are you as attracted to your mate if he doesn’t fall under the “man’s man” designation? According to one study, it depends. The aforementioned researchers at the University of Mexico held another study in 2004, this time to see if women lost interest in their partners during their cycles. Results showed that attraction levels only dipped during fertile days if their partners were less attractive (or as they so politely said, had “high fluctuating asymmetry”) in general. The women who were with conventionally attractive men (as in those with symmetrical features) were less likely to be more attracted to men outside of the relationship during ovulation. But overall, the women participating in the study on average just weren’t as attracted to their mates when at their most fertile. Again, this could be because our standards for settling down with someone are different than who we instinctually recognize as carrying good genetic material. It’s important to note that all of these studies are based on women with regular menstrual cycles. If you’re on birth control, you don’t have the same influx of hormones, and therefore might not experience any differences in attraction levels. But if that’s not the case, see if you notice a surprisingly strong predilection for deep voices, manly smells, male bravado, and typically masculine features like strong chins and brows as you near ovulation. Studies have shown increased attraction to all of these characteristics among women in the later stages of their cycles. Clearly, our hormones like us to mix things up throughout the month and make life a little spicier. And if they say we should spend a few days fantasizing about super-masculine guys who might be all wrong for us any other time of the month, who are we to argue?

  12. I don't know there Kozin: looks like you've been cookin' the books. ...lol
  13. Does anyone have any psychiatric or psychological stuff going on?
  14. I'm still working on it. Give me a little more time.

  16. I think it is time for the dwarf to move out. You can still visit him, but he doesn't share the bed with you, or live in the next room. If you really want, you can strangle him and throw him over a bridge. Perhaps that's what you really need.
  17. Hey i know Sweden has a real history with harness horse racing. I was training these horses in the USA. You guys know anything about it in your country?? [the Ellitlopp]. (some of the best horses in the world)
  18. Sounds a bit anti-climactic. It's like UK doctors are still stuck in the 18th century. Are hack-saws still the main treatment for infection over there?
  19. Went from $2.20 to $5.60 (the stock), i made $500. [man i am ball less, wish i could have bought more] Qaiphyx i guess you were right
  20. 8:00 AM November 27th, 2012 Acadia Pharmaceuticals announces the results of the Phase III trials for a possible-new class of antipsychotics for use with Parkinson's Psychosis. These are the 5ht2a inverse agonists. The drug is Pimavanserin. If found effective, it could end up being used for a whole group of psychiatric disorders possibly.
  21. I don't see them now. But 6 or 7 months ago, it would look out of control for me. Give it time buddy. It will start healing itself.
